Homely Indian cooking in a cosy room with notably kind service and many gluten-free and vegan choices; mostly excellent meals, though a minority report bland or inconsistent dishes and occasional service delays.

Why it gets a B+ for overall quality

Curry Cottage delivers solid neighborhood dining through strong food quality and genuinely warm, attentive service that make it competitive with respected local favorites. However, inconsistent execution—with some diners encountering bland or oversalted dishes—prevents it from reaching higher territory, and modest space comfort limits its destination appeal. The cosy setting and family-friendly approach make it a reliable choice for casual dining, particularly for groups seeking accessible North Indian comfort food.

Restaurant Summary

The room feels warm and cosy rather than flashy, with friendly staff who greet you like regulars. One diner summed it up: "Service was genuinely kind and the food arrived hot and vibrant." It is the kind of spot where a quiet midweek dinner or relaxed pre-theatre bite fits just right. In the kitchen they stick to classic North Indian comforts with a Glaswegian wink like haggis pakora. Curries lean homely over showy, and when they hit, they really hit—naga lamb with proper heat, tikka masala that is balanced, and fluffy naan. A few guests have found dishes too mild or occasionally underseasoned, but most praise flavour and freshness. Families do well here thanks to familiar crowd-pleasers like butter chicken, tikka masala, rice and naan. The menu also flags multiple gluten-free and vegan choices, and high chairs are available. Kids who prefer simple, mild plates will have options without fuss.
